Precise Treatment of Sebaceous Hyperplasia and Syringoma from the Root

Sebaceous Hyperplasia, An Approach to Reduce Recurrence

If only the visible parts are removed, the root cause of the lesion may remain.

Sebaceous hyperplasia refers to lesions that appear when sebaceous gland tissue within the dermal layer of the skin abnormally enlarges.

However, many procedures often involve only laser removal of lesions that appear on the surface.

While such an approach may seem to provide short-term improvement,

if the fundamental cause of the sebaceous gland tissue is not addressed, there is a possibility of recurrence.

At our medical facility, we adopt a different approach.

We aim to reduce the likelihood of recurrence by addressing the surface of the lesion and selectively managing the underlying root cause.

Beyond simply addressing visible symptoms,

we pursue a treatment direction that improves both the cause and the symptoms.

To achieve this, we utilize a combination of two types of equipment.

1. Secret Agnes RF (Insulated Radiofrequency 1-pin Needle)

By directly delivering high-frequency energy to the area where sebaceous gland tissue is located,

it helps to selectively coagulate the sebaceous glands.

By using insulated microneedles, epidermal or surrounding tissue damage is minimized,

targeting only the sebaceous gland tissue.

This plays a crucial role in managing the root cause of sebaceous hyperplasia.

2. Erbium YAG Laser (Er:YAG)

Compared to CO2 lasers, it allows for more precise control over the depth of the lesion during ablation,

and can be used to meticulously remove raised lesions.

This laser typically causes less damage to surrounding tissue, resulting in a lighter recovery burden and helping to reduce the possibility of scarring.

In some cases, a CO2 laser may be used in conjunction to manage lesions located deeper.

This demonstrates a different approach from conventional simple removal procedures.

Standalone ablation using only a CO2 laser primarily removes only the superficial part of the lesion, leaving the underlying cause of the sebaceous gland, which can lead to recurrence.

Our combined procedure focuses on selectively managing sebaceous gland tissue and refining surface lesions to reduce the likelihood of recurrence.

Key Characteristics of Sebaceous Hyperplasia

Sebaceous Hyperplasia

Procedures that only remove the surface may have limitations.

Managing both the surface and internal causes of the lesion can help reduce the possibility of recurrence.

Are you experiencing any of the following symptoms?

Small, round bumps typically observed on the forehead, cheeks, or around the nose

Lesions with a central indentation, appearing like a belly button

Resembling common pimples but difficult to extract

Symptoms that do not disappear over time or gradually increase in number

These symptoms may not be mere skin blemishes,

and a condition where sebaceous glands are abnormally overgrown, *sebaceous hyperplasia (Sebaceous Hyperplasia)* may be suspected. It is advisable to consult with a specialist for an accurate diagnosis.
